“Don't talk about efficient transportation just yet. We don’t have reliable transportation routes yet,” said a toll road CEO several years ago.

At that time, the discussion was marked by numerous disagreements between the construction of a train network and toll roads. The rail network received more support because it was efficient, environmentally friendly and it was believed that it would not change agricultural land too much. The construction of toll roads was considered otherwise.
